This was George Hammond, my father. The funeral service I was deprived of in 1957 by the US Army and The American Red Cross. The US Army allowed a white soldier to leave the field on a Tuesday and flew him to the United States because of death or illness in his family. The same day I was notified to visit the Red Cross after returning from the field. Saturday I visited the Red Cross and was informed that my dear father had passed away on Tuesday prior to my leaving the field. I was told that I would be unable to attend the funeral service and say my goodbye’s to my father.

Blacks Hating on Blacks

Roy C's Dream to build a mall & a Roy C Museum was destroyed by black town officials of Allendale.

Roy C fought these black town officials for 9 years spending thousands of dollars in legal fees. The black Allendale town officials took the building and had it pushed down to the ground. Now SRP Credit Union sits on this site.
